 The Mavens' Word of the Day   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
The word is lede, and it refers to the opening lines of a newspaper article, also called the "lead." It is used in alerting the printer to them but distinguishes them from the word "lead" (Pb), since that metal was used in the printing of the ink.
The two homophones needed to be distinguished, and hence the variant spelling lede was invented.
The spelling "lede" was not invented by journalists.

 John Borwick: lede   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Somewhere, recently, I read the term "lede" in the course of an article, which some web pages define as "the lead paragraph of a story, spelled phonetically so it's not confused with 'lead' the weighting between lines or with the metal 'lead.'"
The funny thing is, the only relevant entry in the OED is "lede: obsolete variant of lead." That usually means that 'lede' is extremely old and not worth talking about.
Therefore I believe "lede" should not be talked about today, because it's totally obsolete and should not have been used in the last 500 years; it's like saying "mine eyen." Alternatively the OED should have something descriptive to say about "lede".

In terms of profit contribution — operating income — well over 40% is pharma, and chemicals and coatings contribute the rest at almost equal levels; though it depends a little on the cycle.
We have over the years had a very clear and simple strategy, which has also been published in our annual report, and that is that we are giving priority to pharma, followed by coatings, followed by chemicals.
We are to a large extent a niche player, predominantly in the field of female healthcare, with products ranging from fertility and infertility, so from the common pill to helping people who cannot have babies, to menopausal products — the whole range.
